Iran’s adventure through a World Cup beset by geopolitical complexity and logistical complications will likely continue after the team landed a frenetic 1-1 draw against Egypt. The high-stakes encounter...
From start to now, Los Angeles’s handling of the fires that tore through the city a year ago has been a masterclass in how not to run a city, and all of the Democratic leaders involved are happy to point the finger elsewhere instead of finding real solutions. The latest response disaster has been fines levied against […]
The snowstorm that shut down the Northeast did not shut down the mob. In the streets of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s New York and in its Washington Square Park in lower Manhattan, crowds of young men assaulted police officers with snowballs. This might sound like harmless fun. After all, that’s the point of snowball fights; they […]
Many progressives and internationalists on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean support European Union expansion. Increasing membership does not always bring peace. The Kremlin justified Russia’s 2008 invasion of Georgia, as well as Moscow’s 2014 and 2022 invasions of Ukraine, in its own paranoia about Western efforts to expand EU membership eastward. The logic behind […]
Most normal, sane, rational, intelligent, and common-sense Americans felt joy after the U.S. men’s Olympic hockey team defeated Canada 2-1, winning the gold medal for the first time in 46 years. However, liberals, Democrats, and others on the Left did what they do when anyone is jubilant regarding U.S. achievements: they sucked the joy out […]

George Washington, the Continental Congress, and the men and women whose bravery and sacrifice led up to the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Mexico is awash in violence. And the country’s stringent gun control laws aren’t helping. On Feb. 22, the Mexican military carried out an operation that killed Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, nicknamed “El Mencho,” the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG). Mexican armed forces were reportedly trained by a small cadre of U.S. Navy SEALs […]
Montgomery County Public Schools in Maryland has now spent millions of taxpayer dollars learning a lesson it refused to accept voluntarily: Parents have rights, and courts will enforce them. Last week, the Montgomery County Board of Education agreed to pay $1.5 million in damages and submit to court-enforced protections for parental rights following the Supreme Court’s landmark […]
If I were writing the State of the Union address this year, it would begin with a sentence every American deserves to hear plainly, specifically that the state of our economy is strong, but the financial state of our nation is not. Those two truths can coexist. In fact, they do today. Our economy continues […]
I was born in the mid-1970s, but if I’d been born 35 years later, I am almost certain someone would have told me I was “actually” a boy. My best childhood memories include dirt, frogs, and scraped knees. I wasn’t indoors making crafts or playing with dolls. Rather, I was digging through drainage culverts on […]
President Donald Trump must soon decide whether to launch a major war against Iran. Buffeted by large-scale protests that have claimed thousands of lives, the Islamic Republic may be vulnerable to regime change if confronted with military strikes from the United States and Israel. Whether regime change is a realistic goal for any strategic bombing […]
Greece is no longer Europe’s chronic bailout case. It is becoming one of the world’s most compelling economic comeback stories and one of Europe’s most strategically important states. The turnaround is real. Greece’s economy is expected to grow 2.4% in 2026, after expanding 2.2% in 2025. Tourism remains strong, but business investment is rising, and household consumption is improving. Even more significantly, […]
At 4:15 a.m. on Feb. 24, 2022, explosions jolted Kyiv awake. Russia had launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine from Belarus in the north, from Russia in the east, and from occupied Crimea in the south. The capital of Kyiv was the primary target. Moscow’s plan was to seize Kyiv within three days, kill Ukrainian […]
The Mexican Army has killed the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, a powerful thug named “El Mencho.” The cartel responded with wanton violence that brought the country to a standstill. Both Mexico and the United States deserve credit for fighting the war on drugs as if it were an actual war. And now it’s up to both to stay […]
